G37 Tech Specs, Features & Options

I don't think this is a repost, but if it is I'll delete it.

Anyways, here is all the specs on the G37 directly from NissanNews.

Specs


Also, here is a couple of neats pics from NissanNews as well.

Good point. Why is the 6MT Sport heavier than the base G37 and Journey versions? Increasing weight mitigates against the displacement and horsepower increase, plus it makes a car handle less well and brake worse.
Enquiring Minds want to know!

It seems every year a G hits the streets, it gets heavier even though they increase horsepower output. So you increase weight and add horsepower and you are back where you first started. I don't get it either.

Well said. I just checked out the weights for the 2007 Sedan:
G35: 3,497
G35 Journey: 3,505
G35x AWD: 3.704
G35 Sport: 3,538
G35 6MT: 3.532

Why oh why is the Coupe quite a bit heavier than the Sedan? By rights, it should be lighter, not heavier. 3616 for the base Coupe, 3624 for the Journey and 3,668 for the 6MT. The sportiest is the heaviest. Weight is the bane of any car. As you said, we are in a vicious cycle because we increase weight, so we increase engine size and power to offset the additional weight. This continues until the car becomes a clean sheet of paper redesign. I don't like the direction Infiniti is taking.

Why wouldn't it? All First Aid kits should. Do only men need first aid or something?

Wow, so much weight.

Yet it still manages to outhandle the 335i.

I highly doubt a .2 liter displacement and 14" rotors give Infiniti an excuse to add another 150 lbs.

19" wheels are cast, not forged like the previous 19" Rays wheels

I may be a total idiot, but what is the difference between a sunroof and moonroof? The specs mention both.

I believe a Sunroof is not seethrough, it is metal, and a Moonroof is glass.
